White Women, Black Men Illicit Sex in the 19th-Century South
Martha Hodes
Excerpt:
"...Klansmen could in fact resort to sexual mutilation for any act that struck them as demonstating too much authority, wheter or not they tacked on an accusation of sexual misconduct. In North Carolina, for example, a black man named Nathan Trolinger was "made to mutilate his own private parts with his pocket-knife" after a severe whipping. The cause was a labor dispute."
